Living in Denmark

Summer this year has been really wonderful here in Denmark. I dont remember we had that many sunny days consecutively that i think some areas in the country is experiencing drought. Global warming is REAL. But lucky me, i get to have more days at the beach!

Planned for this trip for a month and was really grateful that a friend of ours, a local suggested to bring us to Møns Klint. The only information i had was that it was a UNESCO site.

Brief summary from wikipedia: Møns Klint is a 6 km stretch of limestone and chalk cliffs along the eastern coast of the Danish Island of Møn in the Baltic Sea. The highest cliff is Dronningestolen which is above 128m above sea level

Off we went to a 2D1N trip in Møns Klint! It was about a 2.5 hours car ride and we headed off for the adventure with loads of food, snacks and drinks for the day!

First stop was the Geocentre of Møns Klint where one can experience the birth of Møns. We are more interested in the hike and maybe taking a dip into the sea, so we just went for a walk. Denmark is such a flat country that i could hardly find anywhere to hike. So this was our first ever hike in Denmark!

The pictures will do the talking from here onwards!

i think we have acclimatise to the weather here in Denmark. It was only 25 degrees and we were like OMG this is hot! i cannot imagine when we are back in Singapore. We will probably melt in the unforgiving heat.

Headed off to our accomodation which is a castle to check-in and freshen up! The castle was located in a very quiet forest where it was also home to a peacock and 2 huge lakes with many many ducks. We sat down on the grassland and decided to have a picnic. Something that i would never imagine myself doing back in my home country. It was really therapeutic being so near to nature! there were times the ducks were so close to us, because they wanted food. But of course, we didnt feed them.

We had a nice dinner at the hotel and then went off to bed in the little castle!

It was such an experience being able to live in a castle! the rooms were better than i have expected, just that it was so warm without AC and we were so afraid of leaving the windows wide open to let the mosquitoes in to feed on us.

Day two was exploring an ice cream place and also to a bird nature reserve island which has only 42 inhibitants living on that island. We found yummy food and chat with the locals instead of bird viewing since we were too unequipped: We only arrived at Nyord in the afternoon and we had no binoculars. We were not bird lovers too! HAHAHAHS.

It was a good trip! We had so much fun with our friend and also exploring Denmark together. So grateful for the memories that we build together. Till next time!
